Title: tactical flash light as defensive weapon
Post by: JasonBlank on Fri, 08 April 2011, 23:59:30

hi
friends,
i want to share an interesting topic.Defence with light.
Flashlights have become common tactical tools for law enforcement and the military. The role of flashlights has expanded beyond mere illumination to include self-defense, mounting on weapons, and even signaling satellites.

Everyone should think about that .

if you have a new view tell through this forum..

What distinguishes a tactical flashlight from a regular one?

Are there also strategic flashlights?

I believe the correct adjective is "tactile" flashlight.

I prefer linear flashlights.

It's yet another marketing scam. It means you pay 10x the price of regular gears for something supposedly built for spec-ops or SWAT teams.

Strategic flashlight aka buoy ;-)

I've got an M 122 that I may or may not have royally screwed up, (did a teensy mod, then removed it, so now it doesn't have a cable, makes it more of a weapon :p ) That sits in my room to be used as a weapon haha. Only thing is the bottom of the case cracked in shipping. Lady thought two medium flat rate boxes taped together filled with packing peanuts would support a damn 122... She thought wrong.

Yea dude.  All you gotta do is epoxy the ports on the ergodox, and have yourself an ergo-chaku.

Bruce lee may care for it, but IDK some Nerd glasses geeky guy named bartholomew lee would rock it.
